    Aspects of Hamlet brings together authoritative articles by distinguished Shakespeare scholars. In making their selection from the entire range of Shakespeare Survey volumes, Kenneth Muir and Stanley Wells have borne the interests of the general reader in mind, as well as the needs of teachers and students. The plates, chosen from the Royal Shakespeare Company's files at the Shakespeare Centre, Stratford-upon-Avon, illustrate post-war productions of the play.
